We don't need more "features". Fix the current bugs. Finder is a mess for example.

I just upgraded to macOS 26 and I swear it's messing with my eyeballs. Am I crazy or do the buttons on toolbars have these subtle blurred drop shadows. I catch the effect while scanning across the displays and it is making my eyes do a double take. It's very annoying.

Is there any way to just get a crisp, clean, grayscale interface like the old NeXT machines.

Also, the corners should be 90° to better fit the 90° corners on my monitors. I got the little curly triangles all over the place.

And...well let's just leave it there.
